Wii U will sell the most as it has the exclusive First Party software to sell their system that PS4/X1 truly lack. The Sony/Microsoft are too reliant on third party games to sell their own consoles. Their simply a lack of exclusive Third Party content for PS4/X1, as all the big franchises will be coming out for PS3/360 for many years to come. People will not in large number pay $400-500 dollar on new console to play a improved version of CoD or Fifa which they can get for their existing console.

corrected for you.

If I knew the answer to this, I'd use my knowledge to find the powerball numbers instead LOL. Anyway, in all seriousness...

I think Xbox One wins America, PS4 wins Europe, and Wii U wins Japan. Xbox One will barely win overall.

Wow, people are really for the Wii U turn around?
I guess the few games that are coming out will turn it around, but then again the Gamecube didn't exactly fly off shelves with all the big titles it had.

I think it will be PS4>XB1>>>Wii U

there's no "turning around" when it never had the big hitters in the first place.

there's more than "a few" games coming. And thankfully wii u is not a gamecube and is in a mearket 12 years older.

No...they wont struggle like Nintendo has. Nintendo had content and marketing issues post launch. If it wasnt the Wii they didnt care.

ps4 and Xone have content issues before, during and after launch.

As said already, pretty much every console has had a slow first year. So just going by that alone should say the Wii U will be on top. Then if you wanna look at other factors, the Wii U will have a bigger library of exclusive and proven games, and be cheaper in price, likely much cheaper with a price drop.

Yep PS2 and Wii are the only consoles released this century that didnt have a slow first year.

That first sentance is a really wierd argument. Its selling badly and the games will cause it to sell better, that is "turning it around"

it was a little confusing but I meant that the curretn situation is due to lack of games. A REAL turn around would be if the system was seling badly even without a game drought and then start selling gangbusters.
